Bug Description

As title says.

I'm new to Max. Great software you have here!
So sorry if it's not a proper bug, rather than features.

But I was wondering about the way the workflow goes, for example:
-- Load into Max a bunch of AIFF files which contain only a few tags (track title).
-- Complete the tagging myself (lot of work).
          !!! At this stage, tag metadatas are not saved into my files !!!
-- Hit "Convert", conversion OK, but all my files and metadatas have vanished from the main list...

If I want to start another conversion, with other "extract" or "format" parameters, I think the main window "file to convert" shouldn't be cleared because of ONE conversion. May be it could be an option (I didn't find anything like that in "Preferences").

This said, if this option is not possible, it should be interesting to have an action/button to save metadatas that are entered manually, before and/or indepandently of the conversion. In this example, may be I would enhance my AIFF files with correct tagging.

Regards
